EU-guaranteed compensation: Luxair flight Saarbruecken - Luxemburg

Major delay on your Luxair flight Saarbruecken ✈ Luxemburg? This happens to thousands every month. Fortunately: compensation is available.

Regulation 261/2004 is clear: for 80 km, Luxair is bound by a compensation obligation if boarding is denied.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.

Bear in mind: only genuine force majeure (exceptional conditions, ATC restrictions, political instability) exempt Luxair from this obligation. In all other cases, compensation must be paid.

An sudden suppression or a rerouted flight from Saarbruecken without a satisfactory solution qualifies for the same 250€ indemnity.
